- Abstract
All dead fetuses in group A showed brain restriction with mean ADC values of 744±310×10 SP -6 sp mm SP 2 sp /s (ADC values of living fetuses in this group was 1640±202×10 SP -6 sp mm SP 2 sp /s). Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) measures water molecules diffusivity through tissues and can be quantitatively expressed as an apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value. Methods We collected intrauterine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of all monochorionic pregnancies underwent radiofrequency ablation (RFA), referred to our centre from April 2018 to November 2020 because the exact time of intrauterine death can be achieved in RFA setting.
